2016考研英语:段落翻译练习及解析【真题例举】Most people would define optimism as endlessly happy, with a glass that's perpetually half fall. But that's exactly the kind of falsecheerfulness that positive psychologists wouldn't recommend. "Healthy optimists means being in touch with reality." says Tal Ben-Shahar, a Harvard professor, According to Ben-Shahar, realistic optimists are these who make the best of things that happen, but not those who believe everything happens for the best.Ben-Shahar uses three optimistic exercisers. When he feels down-sag, after giving a bad lecture-he grants himself permission to be human. He reminds himself that mot every lecture can be a Nobel winner; some will be less effective than others. Next is reconstruction, He analyzes the weak lecture, leaning lessons, for the future about what works and what doesn't. Finally, there is perspective, which involves acknowledging that in the ground scheme of life, one lecture really doesn't matter.【参考译文】大多数人愿意把乐观定义为无尽的欢乐,就像一只总是装着半杯水的杯子。

2016考研英语写作模拟(五)

2016考研英语写作模拟(四)Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing. In your essay, you should1) describe the drawing briefly,2) explain its intended meaning, and3) give your comments.You should write neatly on the ANSWER SHEET. (20 points)范文As is ironically shown above, in front of a pile of so-called “famous brand” fake leather shoes and under a signboard of “honest dealer” stands a business man, asking an old man “what are you looking for”, with a reply from the old man---honesty/credibility (with the old man replying that i am looking for honesty/credibility.) There has been a heated discussion about this kind of pictures in the newspaper. Simple as the picture is, it does demonstrate certain thought-provoking social phenomenon.The picture tells us that the credibility remains to be an integral part in our society, especially in the commercial world. Nowadays, individuals, enterprises and organizations do attach due attention to this issue. By gaining credibility, people and organization can make money, take profits and even obtain wealth. With credibility and sincerity, not only can they accumulate wealth, but will establish their careers, fit into society and finally attain social status. Honesty can promote communication, eliminate barriers and bridge gaps between people. What’s more, were there no credibility in our society, never could we survive the fierce competition in the age of globalization.As a consequence, honesty is not something that we can afford to lose or leave it at large. It is imperative that corresponding regulations and mechanisms with the joint efforts of the media should be introduced and enforced to promote honesty by authorities. The awareness of honesty should be enhanced, which will lead us to make every effort to keep our promise and boycott fakes which are shown in the picture. Only in a reasonable, prosperous and healthy atmosphere can we hope to avoid the scene in the cartoon and witness the ideal scene in which people can enjoy their life to the uttermost.译文如图所示,在一堆所谓的名牌假货皮鞋前面,一个诚信商户的牌子下面,站着一个生意人。

考研英语翻译模拟试题及答案(五)

考研英语翻译模拟试题及答案(五)Theories of the value of art are of two kinds, which we may call extrinsic and intrinsic. The first regards art and the appreciation of art as means to some recognized moral good, while the second regards them as valuable not instrumentally but as objects unto themselves. It is characteristic of extrinsic theories to locate the value of art in its effects on the person who appreciates it. Art is held to be a form of education, perhaps an education of the emotions. In this case, it becomes an open question whether there might not be some more effective means to the same result. (46) Alternatively, one may attribute a negative value to art, as Plato did in his Republic, arguing that art has a corrupting or diseducative effect on those exposed to it.The extrinsic approach, adopted in modern times by Leo Tolstoy in What Is Art in 1896, has seldom seemed wholly satisfactory.(47)Philosophers have constantly sought for a value in aesthetic experience that is unique to it and that, therefore, could not be obtained from any other source. The extreme version of this intrinsic approach is that associated with Walter Pater, Oscar Wilde, and the French Symbolists, and summarized in the slogan “art for art’s sake”. Such thinkers and writers believe that art is not only an end in itself but also a sufficient justification of itself. (48)They also hold that in order to understand art asit should be understood, it is necessary to put aside all interests other than an interest in the work itself.Between those two extreme views there lies, once again, a host of intermediate positions. (49)We believe, for example, that works of art must be appreciated for their own sake, but that, in the act of appreciation, we gain from them something that is of independent value.(50)Thus a joke is laughed at for its own sake, even though there is an independent value in laughter, which lightens our lives by taking us momentarily outside ourselves. Why should not something similar be said of works of art, many of which aspire to be amusing in just the way that good jokes are?答案46.或者,人们可能会认为艺术具有负面的影响,像柏拉图在《理想国》一书中所认为的那样,艺术会影响那些接触它的人,使其堕落,或起不到教化作用。

翻译硕士(MTI)英语翻译基础(汉译英)模拟试卷共20题附答案(五)

英语翻译基础(汉译英)模拟试卷1. 解决13亿人的问题,不能靠别人,只能靠自己。

中华人民共和国成立以来,我们的建设取得了很大成就,同时也走了一些弯路,失去了一些机遇。

从1978年开始改革开放,我们终于找到了一条发展自己的正确道路。

这就是:中国人民独立自主地建设中国特色的社会主义。

这条道路的精髓,就是调动一切积极因素,解放和发展生产力,尊重和保障中国人民追求幸福的自由。

中国的改革开放,从农村到城市,从经济领域到政治、文化、社会领域。

它的每一步深入,说到底,都是为了放手让一切劳动、知识、技术、管理和资本的活力竞相进发,让一切创造社会财富的源泉充分涌流。

标准答案We can rely on no one except ourselves to resolve the problems facing our 1.3 billion people. Since the founding of the People’s Republic, we have achieved much in our national reconstruction; at the same time we have made a few detours and missed some opportunities. By 1978, with the adoption of the reform and opening-up policies, we had ultimately found the right path of development—the Chinese people’s path of independently building socialism with Chinese characteristics.The essence of this path is to mobilize all positive factors, emancipate and develop the productive forces, and respect and protect the freedom of the Chinese people to pursue happiness.China’s reform and opening-up have spread from rural areas to the cities, from the economic field to the political, cultural and social arenas. Each and every step forward is designed, in the final analysis, to release the gushing vitality of labor, knowledge, technology, managerial expertise and capital, and allow all sources of social wealth to flow to the fullest extent.2. 纺织企业改革目前国有纺织企业占用着上亿元的资产,却连年巨额亏损,其重要原因是资源重复配置,企业过度竞争,而败者又难以实现优化配置。

2016考研英语翻译模拟练习题(5)Relativity theory has had a profound influence on our picture of matter by forcing us to modify our concept of a particle in an essential way. (1)(In classical physics, the mass of an object had always been associated with an indestructible material subst ance, with some “stuff” of which all things were thought to be made.)Relativity theory showed that mass has nothing to do with any substance, but is a form energy. Energy, however, is a dynamic quantity associated with activity, or with processes.(2)(The fact that the mass of a particle is equivalent to a certain of energy means that the particle can no longer be seen as a static object, but has to be conceived as a dynamic pattern, a process involving the energy which manifest itself a s the particle’s mass.)(3)(This new view of particles was initiated by Dirac when he formulated a relativistic equation describing the behavior of electrons.) Dirac’s theory was not only extremely successful in accounting for the fine details of atomic structure, but also revealed a fundamental symmetry between matter and anti-matter. It predicted the existence of an anti-matter with the same mass as the electron but with an opposite charge. This positively charged particle, now called the positron, was indeed discovered two years after Dirac had predicted it. The symmetry between matter and anti-matter implies that for every particle there exists an antiparticles with equal mass and opposite charge. Pairs of particles and antiparticles can be created if enough energy is available and can be made to turn into pure energy in the reverse process of destruction.(4)(These processes of particle creation and destruction had been predicted from Dirac’s theory before they were actually discovered in nature, and since then they have been observed millions of times.) The creation of material particles from pure energy is certainly the most spectacular effect of relativity theory, and it can only be understood in terms of the view of particles outlined above.(5)(Before relativistic particle physics, the constituents of matter had always been considered as being either elementary units which were indestructible and unchangeable, or as composite objects which could be broken up into their constituent parts;)and the basic question was whether one could divide matter again and again, or whether one would finally arrive at some smallest indivisible units.答案1.在古典物理中,某一物体的质量总是与一种不可毁灭的物质相关联。

这是一种构成一切物质的“东西”。

2.某一粒子的质量相当于一定的能量,这一事实意味着该粒子不再被看作是一个静态的物体,而应该被看成是一种动态的形式,一种与能量表现为粒子质量相关的过程。

3.这一新的粒子观是由迪拉克首创的,他列出了描述电子运动行为的相对论方程。

4.粒子生成和毁灭的过程在真正被发现之前,迪拉克的理论已经对它们作出了预测,从那时起人们对此做过数百万次的观测。

5.在相对论粒子物理学诞生之前,人们一直以为物质的构成成分要么是不可毁灭和不可改变的基本单位,要么是可以分解为其构成部分的合成物。

总体分析本文是一篇关于粒子物理理论的文章。

第一段:指出相对论改变了我们的粒子概念,从而影响了我们对物质的理解。

第二段:指出这一粒子观点是由迪拉克首创的,他的理论揭示了物质和反物质的基本对称。

该理论已经得到了证实。

第三段:纯能量创造物质粒子是相对论最惊人的影响。

相对论观点的粒子物理学改变了人们对于物质的看法和理解。

本文是一篇科普性说明文,属于正式文体。

考生首要的任务是清楚地分析句子结构,并结合自己的物理常识准确把握生疏词汇,在此基础上完成翻译。

本题考核的知识点:(一)被动语态。

(二)定语,包括定语从句,分词作定语。

(三)状语从句。

试题精解1.[精解] 本题考核的知识点是:被动语态、定语从句的译法。

该句的句子主干是:the mass ... had always been associated with an indestructible material substance,其中完成时的被动语态had been associated with,可译成“总是与...相关联”。

with some “stuff”of which引导的定语从句修饰indestructible material substance,翻译的时候应该按照汉语习惯,将定语前置,放到所修饰的名词前面。

可直译为“所有物质被认为是由这种物质构成的”,或意译为“这是构成一切物质的东西”。

考生应该注意of 与be made 是词组be made of被分隔了的形式,译成“由...构成的”。

词汇:classical“经典的,古典的”,在该句中取其第二种含义,译成“古典物理”。

2.[精解] 本题考核知识点:同位语、宾语从句、定语从句、现在分词作定语的译法。

该句的句子主干是The fact means that...,fact后是that 引导的同位语从句,同位语从句的翻译和定语从句翻译有很多相似之处,如果句子较长,可单独成句,并用“这一事实...”将从句和主语连接在一起,that可以省略不译。

Means后是that引导的宾语从句,其中有两个并列的谓语:can no longer be seen as和has to be conceived as,译为“不能再被看成...,而应该被看成...”。

a process 是宾语补足语a dynamic pattern的同位语,可以译成并列结构。

Involving...部分是现在分词作定语,修饰a process,按照汉语习惯译成“与……有关的过程”。

Which...mass是定语从句,修饰the energy,可译成“表现为粒子质量的能量。

”词汇:be equivalent to“等同于,相当于”。

Be conceived as“被看成,被认为”。

Dynamic “动力的,动态的”。

3.[精解] 本题考核知识点:被动语态、状语从句、现在分词作定语的译法。

该句的句子主干是被动语态结构This new view of particles was initiated by Dirac,在翻译被动语态时,通常按照汉语习惯转换成主动语态,但是有时候为了突出施动者,也可译成“由...所做的”。

该句中为了突出initiated这一动作是由Dirac发出,应译成“这一观点是由...首创的”。

When 引导时间状语从句,可译成“当...的时候”,或者为了突出正在发生的事件,译成“那时候...”。

describing ... electrons部分是现在分词作定语,修饰relativistic equation,应该按照汉语习惯译成“描述电子运动行为的相对论方程”。

词汇:initiated“开始,发起”,句中译为“首创”。

Formulated“用公式表达,明确地表达“。

relativistic equation“相对论方程”。

4.[精解] 本体考核知识点:状语从句、被动语态的译法。

该句由两个并列的分句构成:These processes had been predicted和since then they have been observed。
